Graham felt as if he had run out of breath all of a sudden.
Aurora nodded again and said in an earnest tone, “Yes, he wants to give us two magical elixirs, I heard him correctly!”
“Oh my god!” Tears flooded Graham’s eyes as well. “Does it mean that he wants to help our family too?”
“Yes! Master Smith said that he wants our full cooperation whenever he has any demands for medicinal materials in the future.”
“Wonderful, Aurora, that’s great news! Master Smith wants to help our family! With his help, our family will prosper and flourish to the next level!”
Then, he asked curiously, “By the way, when he saw you, did he have any special requests?”
Abruptly, Aurora’s whole face and neck were painted in a shade of bright red. She stuttered shyly, “Master Smith, he… he said… He said…”
“Argh! What did he say?”
Lowering her head timidly, she mumbled, “Master Smith said that he can’t say no to such a cute face…”
“Hahaha!” Graham laughed out loud and exclaimed, “Marvelous, darling, marvelous! It seems that Master Smith will become my son-in-law one day!”
Aurora muttered shyly, “Dad, what are you talking about…”
“Anything is possible, Aurora! Keep up the good work!” He was still very excited at this point. “With his powerful and magical abilities, his behavior and characteristics must be very different from that of ordinary people. He certainly doesn’t care about people’s views and moral restraints—otherwise, why would he stoop so low and be the mediocre Wilson family’s son-in-law? So, darling, you must take persistent action. Try to make your move on Master Smith, or better still, have his child! Then, our family will thrive on a whole new level!”
Aurora was so embarrassed that she wanted to hide like an ostrich. She covered her face and uttered, “Dad… what are you talking about? You’re embarrassing me!”
She stomped her foot and ran back to her room…
The news about Joe’s refining magical elixir spread like wildfire among several upper class families in Aurous Hill.
Zeke White of the White family, Finn Baxendale of Treasure Pavilion, and Don Albert Rhodes of Heaven Springs heard the news. They were eager to ask Joe for the medicine, but Zeke was the only one who really voiced out his request.
Zeke was confident to do so since he had expressed his sincerity to Joe and had even given him a Thompson First villa worth a hundred million dollars.
He went to Joe’s house in the afternoon since he was at home and asked for the magical elixir as Aurora did.
Of course, Joe didn’t turn down his request since he was quite comfortable to give him commands. His son and nephew were a bit stupid and badly behaved, but he had taught them lessons and now that Zeke was treating him with full respect and docility, there was no need to be stingy over one pill.
Zeke bowed and thanked him profusely after getting an affirmative answer. The wealthier a person was, the more afraid they were of death. For them, the magical elixir was like a miracle drug that they wanted to keep for emergency use.
After sending Zeke home, Joe retrieved the ingredients and started to refine a batch of pills.
He used only one-tenth of the ingredients to make thirty pills. Moreover, because he had used a full prescription and its quality was much better than the previous batch, the effect was ten times greater than the old batch.
If the previous batch could treat most moderate internal injuries and had some effects on the healing, then this batch could almost cure and heal fatal internal injuries. Even the old and stubborn illnesses that had tormented Anthony for many years could be cured with only half a pill.
If someone was being chased by a hitman and was fatally wounded, he could survive by taking the pill.
After refining the elixir, Joe kept twenty for himself and called Jasmine, Anthony, Graham, and Zeke to inform them about the news and of his intention to host a banquet at Don Albert’s Heaven Springs restaurant tonight to distribute the magical elixir.
Everyone was ecstatic when they received the call.
Master Smith was truly the real master! He could refine the magical medicine so quickly, almost as fast as making bread!
That night, they went to Heaven Springs in advance and awaited Joe’s arrival.
He prepared dinner for Claire, Jacob, and Elaine before informing them that he had a reunion with an old friend from the orphanage and slipping out of the house.
When he arrived at the entrance of the Heaven Springs, Zeke, Graham and his daughter Aurora, Jasmine, Anthony and his granddaughter Xyla, as well as Don Albert were standing by the door and personally greeted him.
Heaven Springs was closed for the day as it was reserved purely for Joe.
They spruced up themselves when Joe arrived and greeted him graciously. “Welcome, Master Smith.”
Joe smiled slightly at them and said, “You guys are early. What time did you arrive?”
Jasmine smiled politely and said, “Master Smith, it’s rare and exclusive for you to organize such a dinner. We must arrive earlier to show our respect.”
Jasmine deliberately dressed up for today’s dinner. She put on an elegant and classy black long dress, the tulle lining hugging her perfect and slim curves. It wasn’t very revealing or seductive, but had a rather different kind of charm and allure. Her outfit, coupled with her beautiful facial features, radiated her aura to the fullest.
Joe couldn’t help stealing a few glances at Jasmine, who was truly dashing tonight.
If he compared her with Claire, their outlook and body were almost equal, but in terms of temperament, Claire was a few grades beneath Jasmine.
After all, Jasmine was the daughter of the prominent Moore family. Her temperament was definitely more classy than an ordinary woman.
Meanwhile, Aurora walked towards Joe and bowed as she blushed again.
Unlike the mature and sentimental Jasmine, the unique fusion of Aurora’s heroic appearance with the aura of a timid young lady was a special blend.
Aurora wore light makeup, the natural heroine vibe from her body emphasizing her characteristics like the snow lotus on the iceberg, which was very chilly and alluring.
However, after she acknowledged her feelings towards Joe, she blossomed like a flower under the spring sunshine that added a little tenderness and gentleness in her aura.
She looked at Joe with a layer of pinkish blush painting her cheeks.
An alarming gaze appeared on Jasmine’s eyes, a woman’s instinct made her subconsciously see Aurora as a threat. She thought to herself, ‘Does Aurora Quinton have feelings for Master Smith?’
Her grandfather had told her to attract Master Smith’s attention and make him the Moore family’s son- in-law, and she was tempted by the proposal as well. Did Aurora share the same thought as she did?
Ignorant to the ladies’ mental challenge, Joe wore a light smile on his face and said to everyone, “Remember, you don’t have to be so formal and solemn with me. I like things to be casual and spontaneous, I hope you’ll treat me the same.”
They waved their hands quickly to express their disagreement.
Graham started in a gracious tone, “With your status and influence, we must treat you with utmost honor and respect, Master Smith. That’s the rule!”
Zeke continued, “Master Smith, you are the supreme master of Newton and the savior of us all. We’re willing to wait for you even for an entire day.”
Anthony put his hands together and said, “Master Smith, your clinical and medicinal skills are extraordinary. Everyone in the field will admire and adore you if they know about your superb skills.”
Joe nodded reluctantly and uttered, “Alright then, let’s not just stand here. Let’s go inside.”
